I have a column in my model which requires the data to be passed while saving / modifying data while save and not captured in the screen. for eg, Created date with datetime.now and the created by with the logged in user id.

How do I do that?? I am using mvc5 with visual studio 2013 and Annotations.

Thanks
Rajesh Moorthy

0	Suppose you have a model as public class MyModel{ public DateTime CreatedDate {get;set;} public string CreatedBy{get;set;} } then from your controller you can do e.g. public class MyTestController : Controller{ MyModel mc = new MyModel(); mc.CreatedDate = DateTime.Now; mc.CreatedBy = RequestContext.Principal.Identity.GetUserId(); } Or if you want to pass from View to controller, you can do so by @User.Identity.Name after capturing in a hidden field.Likewise for CreatedDate. And capture those values in controller action method. hope this helps -- Thanks & Regards, RNA Team Rajeshmoorthy, if this helps please login to Mark As Answer. \| Alert Moderator

Suppose you have a model as

public class MyModel{



public DateTime CreatedDate {get;set;}

public string CreatedBy{get;set;}

}

then from your controller you can do e.g.

 

public class MyTestController : Controller{



MyModel mc  = new MyModel();



mc.CreatedDate = DateTime.Now;

mc.CreatedBy = RequestContext.Principal.Identity.GetUserId();

}

Or if you want to pass from View to controller, you can do so by

@User.Identity.Name

after capturing in a hidden field.Likewise for CreatedDate.

And capture those values in controller action method.

hope this helps
